Barak: Nasrallah is 'smart' ,

Former Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Barak holds a news conference in 'Tel Aviv', 'Israel', on June 26, 2019 (AFP) 

According to the former Israeli prime minister Ehud Barak, Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah, the Secretary-General of Hezbollah, the Lebanese resistance, is an "intelligent person," who may "surprise" "Israel" with an attack. 

Barak warned that the Israelis should remain on high alert and stressed the need to "prepare for the possibility that he is calming us down because he intends to carry out a surprise attack."

The former prime minister also emphasized that "Israel" does not wish to fight with both Hezbollah and Gaza at the same time.

During Sayyed Nasrallah's speech on Friday, he stressed that "One of the biggest mistakes that the Israelis committed and continue to commit is setting far-reaching goals that they cannot achieve or reach."

He also affirmed that the Resistance in Lebanon already joined in the battle on October 8, just one day after the launch of Operation Al-Aqsa Flood on October 7.

Sayyed Nasrallah confirmed that "Operation Al-Aqsa Flood was 100% a Palestinian decision, and its execution was 100% Palestinian," adding that "its initiators kept it concealed from everyone, even from other Palestinian factions and Resistance movements, which they did not mind," slamming all reports that Iran was behind this operation.

On Friday, Hezbollah announced it targeted a grouping of Israeli occupation forces near the "Mitat" site opposite the town of Rmeich, resulting in confirmed hits and casualties.

The Islamic Resistance in Lebanon Hezbollah announced for the first time in the ongoing confrontations that it had used drones to target an Israeli military base near the Lebanese border.

In an operation on Thursday, the Resistance group announced it had targeted the headquarters of the Israeli Zebdine barracks in occupied Lebanese Shebaa Farms with two UAVs carrying a heavy load of explosives, confirming direct hits.
